New York Times goes passive aggressive on its war on Christmas, featuring armed and dangerous Santa in the land of Sunnis and Shias. I am sure the good-natured Iraqi people showed appreciation for this Humvee riding, torturing killing machine version of Santa.

So yeah, today is Christmas indeed and hence remember the neediest. Be sure to execute them.

Must you indulge in scam ads too, Amnesty? Apparently, the German arm of Amnesty International is very concerned about slave trade. So concerned that they did this in an airport, you know, to stop slave owners from picking up their slaves.

Extra points for sending a photographer to document the guy who was documenting this.

Hands down, this is the best advert I have seen in ’08. The team that created it understands new media doesn’t do :30 or :59 seconds and if you can weave a compelling story and not be overtly offensive by throwing your brand name every frame, you will create something beautiful.

I know this is from Thailand, would love to know who created it. If you know, please leave the credits in the comments.
